Good shop in Houston for Rear Subframe Bushing?

Mine blew at 57k. I know it's a PITA to replace without a tool... or should I just do the epoxy fix? Thanks.

Do you mean subframe bushings or differential bushing? I know a shop that'll do the subframe bushings but he vowed to never again replace a diff bushing after replacing mine.

I had an inspection at the dealer and they said it was the rear subframe bushing that was leaking. The one that they want $3k to replace the whole assembly.

The dealer doesn't replace just the diff bushing, they have to replace the entire subframe, so that's why they say leaking subframe bushing. My guy claims he'll never do another diff bushing but he might have forgotten how tough it was by now. You can get a replacement bushing from Z-1 Motorsports.

Call Armand Hindrichs at 985-502-3701, he's off 290 and Barker-Cypress.

I had SZR Pro do it, since they advertised the service on social media. Replaced diff fluid too.

Hey sorry I never saw this until now. It was $370 for the labor and $110 for parts.
